Maybe not the best place to post, but …
When you’ve lost someone, how long does it really take to “move on”? How long does it take to stop hurting every single time you think of them?
I hate new year for a reason, and yet I always think you and what we could have had! |

Hiya buddy.
I usually poke fun at everything on the forums but you do sound like you’re struggling. Break ups are really hard, love is a funny thing as it feels amazing but breaks you in the end.
I think you’d really benefit by reaching out to a group such as Men Matter on Facebook. You would be surprised just how many of us, men and women, have these struggles and it’s for these hard times that these support groups are created.

You’re not alone and all I can say is get help and time does make things better. Why don’t you go to a social meet and see if you can take your mind off this person. Keep your head occupied with other things. |

I'm guessing it's someone who has passed? Your not alone, I've struggled this year since the sudden passing of a very dear family member towards the end of last year. Surround yourself with others who feel the same and talk about the good memories/stories and remembering all those good times. New year is supposed to be a happy time but finding as I get older, its an emotional roller coaster.
As someone else posted, mens mental health is a great thing and don't be ashamed to phone them as there are no judgement from these types of groups.
Hope you're OK  |

Being alone at any time does suck.
As an essential widow, I now know why there is so much concern for pensioners that are alone over the Festive Period.
If you're alone due to the loss of a partner, then the best advice I can give is to accept any hand that's offered to you. Learn to force yourself to get out and socialise.
As you're 40, if it is a loss of a partner, then I'd suggest looking into a non-profit charity called "Widowed and Young".
